Chapter 29 too drunk

Seeing the policeman raise his hand, the young lady stopped the car, rolled down the window and smiled brightly, with a wicked look in her eyes.She smiled and said playfully and "generously" to the law enforcement officer, "Handsome guy, what can I do for you?" At this moment, the policeman looked more fierce than before.He waved the drink-driving tester in his hand and said, "Did you drive drunk?" "That's right," the lady laughed, "I'm very drunk, what about you?" I saw a pair of angry eyes under the police cap With a flash of anger, the policeman continued: "Ma'am, please pay attention to your words, drunk driving is serious enough, don't humiliate the law enforcement officer!" "Oh, dear law enforcement officer, do you want to..." She Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a loud shout: "Ma'am, do you know the alcohol content in your blood?" "Me? Zero, I drank some Diet Coke, and Lots and lots of phenethylamine! Would you like some too?" "What did you drink? Benzene what?" The poor guy had no idea, alas, the lady wasn't drunk on alcohol, but on love.

The girl in love is not entirely unreasonable, if we don't choose my words carefully, she is really drunk with love.Like alcohol, love can also be intoxicating, affecting the spirit and reason of people.However, from a biological point of view, real drunkenness is not beneficial, it is just an abnormal behavior invented by people. However, it can bring us a lot of fun.Love is a system formed by evolution, which has certain benefits. Without it, reproduction will be difficult to proceed.When people get drunk, it is the ethanol molecules that make things bad; while in love, it is like a cocktail in a game, in which phenylethylamine is the happy molecule, and I will call it PEA in the following.But don't act too hastily here, the speed is too fast and you are very drunk, it is easy to overturn the car at the corner.

Reproduction is a very troublesome business. A man has to make one of his million sperm meet a woman's egg, and a woman has to try to make one of her egg receive that sperm.We already know that human beings have an innate sense of fear or anger when others are too close to each other. Spatial relational science has studied this, so in order to achieve the combination of sperm and egg cells, we must find a way.In short, it is to perform special tricks and bring sperm and egg cells together.To do this, men and women try to cooperate without any sense of fear or anger.In terms of normal human behavior, this is impossible, and no one would want to participate in such a stunt in an ordinary environment, even want to try.This kind of thinking is fatal to reproduction, otherwise, human beings would not exist.In order to make up for this defect, evolution has come up with a good way to solve the problem, putting men and women in an abnormal environment at the same time, like a kind of intoxication, in which they will forget their shyness and anger, and change their self-esteem. Observation and thinking ability, perception, vigilance and value judgment system, etc.This kind of intoxication is called "love".This method really works. In this environment, people will do some things that they usually feel disgusting, and even produce a lot of body fluids to make the contact between sperm and egg cells more unimpeded.This hallucinogenic journey does not evoke any sense of disgust.In fact, falling in love is just a naughty and "mean" trick played by nature to pass on genes from generation to generation.

Usually you have to drink to get drunk, but you need to use other molecules in love. PEA may be the most common one, and Americans are used to calling it "love drug".This substance can give a person in love a "flying" feeling.Their blood pressure will increase, as will the amount of sugar in their blood used as an energy source.The strangeness and constant tension of intimacy requires energy to whip through, reaching its peak at orgasm—the peak of male-female collaboration.You should think, what a pity, reaching the peak also means climbing to the peak of intoxication, drunk, can you still experience the joy of it?In fact, on the contrary, it is precisely this intoxication that is needed for pleasure, without which there is no sexual enjoyment.Just like when you've had too much to drink, a joke that's usually boring and childish can make you laugh out loud.

To put it more comprehensively, there are actually many "love molecules" active in our brains, such as dopamine and endorphins, which can make people feel good.Dopamine operates the so-called enjoyment core, the nucleus accumbens of "foodies," which is active when enjoying a good meal or something else rewarding.Those of you who enjoy sex, and I'm guessing most of you do, understand that dopamine plays the leading role.Endorphin is an analgesic produced by the brain itself, which, like morphine, can suppress pain.In very stressful situations, endorphins are also produced in the brain, resulting in a feeling of well-being; this can occur after an hour-long run, as well as during sex.Then there's oxytocin, a complex hormone that's especially endearing and multifunctional, and is produced in abundance when bodies come into contact with each other.In the process of introducing the concept of sperm and egg cells, people will naturally feel tension, and with it is the inevitable contact between bodies.

In short, the system that evolution has used to induce males and females to reproduce is extremely chemical.When you hear that I use chemistry to talk about love, you will probably be aggrieved.This is too materialistic, too arbitrary, too biological, and too enlightening!Are people not as good as a few chemical reactions?Unfortunately, that is the truth.I know it's a bad thing to say, but, whether we like it or not, the way we feel in love is controlled by molecules.For those readers who don't like to hear what I have to say, I can only say sorry.Hey, I hear someone comment: But don't we still have a "higher level" feeling?For example, the world of aesthetics, the creativity of art and so on.Yes, this is undeniable, but even these higher forms of sensation are the result of chemical reactions in our brains.Neurons are responsible for transmitting long-distance signals, passing information to each other through molecules.Look, it's still chemistry.

What about the artist?Should he keep silent about the beauty of love?Shouldn't it be time to study molecules?Ah, not so.In spite of all the very "material" things that nature has brought us, if we find love beautiful and interesting, we can pour a circle of heavenly, artistic cream on it, through talking, singing, poetry, painting, Act to make it funnier and better.Don't hesitate, just do it.Evolution never said we couldn't use tricks to have more fun, as long as we think about reproduction.Artists, come on, don't care about those molecules. The police took out a pamphlet and looked up the regulations about drunk driving and benzene. What is that called benzene?But he couldn't find anything, so he just said, "Ma'am, I don't know what to do with your situation. You admit that you were drunk, but you didn't drink, what the hell is going on?" The lady said mischievously: "Then you should read this article." She pointed to the pages of the book you just read, kissed the policeman on the nose, stepped on the accelerator, the wheels rubbed against the ground, and the car roared It drove away with a bang, which is too dangerous.
